Write Better English

Barry Said:

how can I write better, like a native english language speaker?

We Answered:

Wow!! You write better than many of the "mainland" kids I've taught--and they speak English most of the time! In fact, you write English better than my husband, who was born in Ponce and grew up in Guanica, but who has been in New Jersey or Pennsylvania for 20 years now! (Don't tell him that; he's a little self conscience.)

Are there any publications that are written in English that you could write for since you are most interested in writing analysis? Since you attend a bilingual school, there should be newspapers and the like written in English that you could write for to better develop this type of writing.

Marie Said:

What should I do to write better? I mean, I am not a native-English speaker.?

We Answered:

There are books around that help you to write better stories, improve your spelling and your grammar. Some even have exercises you can do to help improve. I would say start with children's school books, but your English seems a bit beyond that (Which is a good thing!!)

I think getting an English thesaurus and dictionary would also be a good idea,plus an idiom dictionary at a later stage to explain all the wierd expressions we use.

Ross Said:

How could I write this short sentence in better english?

Singapore is located in Southeast Asia near Malaysia, and China is located in Eastern Asia. Close to is fine, though.

Your English is still good. Just keep it up.
